Combination omnidirectional GSM/GPS antenna

Combination omnidirectional antenna designed for signal reception in GSM/GPS technologies. The antenna operates in bands 900/1800/1900/2100/1575.42 MHz. In combination with an amplifier, this active antenna achieves a gain of up to 28 dBi in GPS band. It is suitable for use in cars and other vehicles. The antenna is supplied with two 3m cables RG174/U with two SMA(m) connectors. Thanks to the built-in magnet, the antenna can be placed on any metal surface.

Connector specifications SMA:

These are high-frequency connectors with screw connection mechanism. The characteristic impedance of the connector is 50 Ohm and the operating frequency range up to 18 GHz. There are two types of SMA connectors, namely SMA and RP-SMA. Most of the current cellular routers are equipped with SMA connectors for connecting Wi-Fi / 2G / 3G / LTE / GPS antennas terminated by proticates. It is also used as a standard connector in RF measuring technology. They are characterized by high reliability, durability, high mechanical stability and optimal electrical properties.

Cable specifications RG174 / U:

The cable labeled RG174 / U is a much cheaper variant of a coaxial cable that is compatible with connectors applicable to a cable diameter of 2.8 mm. It is mainly used for the frequency range 0 - 1 GHz, it can also be used for higher frequencies, but at the cost of higher attenuation – see the attached attenuation table below. The characteristic impedance of the cable is 50 Ω. The reduction factor is fixed at 0.66. The operating temperature range is -20 to 80 ° C.
It is most often used for creating cable adaptors with connectors such as BNC / FAKRA / FME / MCX / MMCX / N / SMA / SMB / SMP / TNC and others. It is ideal for short and bending stressed connections in measuring and telecommunications technology, for GPS / GSM / WLAN antennas, antenna leads etc.
